Who wants low livestock?
Beautiful picture! I actually miss it lol. But I also remember how dangerous it can be. Hope you all are safe up thereSo far so good in my area. But the wind is picking up big time. Hope the power stays on. But just in case have some blankets and heat packed on stand by. This is what is looks like out my front window.
Please don't ever go to harbor freight for anything ever. That company needs to go away!
Just remember to buy a top of the line inverter as if you don't they will fry electronics with long periods of use! We found out the hard way when I was a deputy with our in car computers. We had a set brand and model we had to use and run to our auto parts store if our went out after hours.
They will send spikes of voltage which fry the things connected. Only took us 5 computers to figure it out!

You need a true sinewave inverter (some of the cheaper ones are labeled true sinewave, but are not so you need to be careful) to power up more sensitive electronics. Resistive loads like basic heaters and pumps don't care, but electronics or things with higher powered switching power supplies and inductive loads do not behave well.
A lot of the stuff sold in the major hardware stores is just as cheaply built for twice as much.
If you are considering Lowes and Home Depot hardware stores, then yes that is true. Much like Walmart and other large chains that have a ton of buying power, they force companies to build to a price point that is frequently below the manufacturer's build cost. So they end up producing sub-par products that the manufacturer won't warranty beyond the minimum required by law because they have to cut corners and use low quality raw stock.
But hey, you are saving a few bucks every time you need to buy a new one to replace the original, so that all adds up to extra savings, right? [/sarcasm]
I looked at Homedepot awhile back. I have 4 heaters. 2 only in use. The other I use for mixing.
Aqueon pro 150w
Aqueon pro 50w
Aqueon 50 glass..
Aqueon preset 50w mini heater.
Which convert from Homedepot would you suggest without blowing the heater, blowing a fuse in the car, or which heater would be best to use out of the four? I have a 13g and 40g. I could take the 50w pro and stick that in the 40w use the glass 50w for the 13g. To keep it at 100w or would I want to up the watts so it is at 200w total combined with what I have in the tanks already? The 13g is brackish
